Quite a lot of online companies that will custom make them for you - I got some in black and red with Volks written on them, much cheaper than buying the stickers from Volks Racing!

do you have a link mate??

It needs to be put down.

bump

sorry if this question sounds stupid but is this a "popcharger"?

is this still for sale?

Michael, new or used, if its new we can help, do you have a budget in mind...

 

How about the Cobra Sport system we offer - http://www.350z-uk.c...m-cougar-store/

preferrably used as im on a budget tbh

Not too fussed with what brand.

Thanks michael

Do you reckon the fault lies with the head unit? I do like having the built in Bluetooth lol

Very odd one here.

sometimes i only seem to get sound from the right handside of my car. it seems very random. ive noticed under medium braking that the sound will come from both sides of speakers and also under steady moderate accelarating.

It may be a loose wire but the set up is all completley standard and hasnt been touched to the best of my knowledge.

Does anyone know where i should start looking in terms of how to repair this fault?

Thanks Michael

Hi all, I purchased an 03 plate gunmetal Zed import on Tuesday and it's been great so far. Looking forward to adding some bits and pieces to make it that much nicer!

It's my first rear wheel drive car so lots to learn and explore! I made the jump from a Fiesta ST so as you can inching its a pretty big jump!

 

I look forward to seeing you all at meets!

 

Cheers

Dave

Hello mate just picked mine up on saturday from st albans. where abouts in herts are you? random but you werent at top golf yesterday were you

Cheers everyone

Hello, I haven't. I've checked the discs and they weren't worn or pitted.

I'll look at the pads on my lunch break.

They do stop rather well. That's why I didn't look at the pads

Thanks michael

As far as I'm aware everything is standard and I think that counts for the brakes too. I may take a video of it. It's very loud.

I just fancied giving the leather abut of a spruce up. Is there a manufacturer that does liquid leather in the altezan colour?

Thanks I'll give it a try. If no luck with that is there anything else you can suggest?

Carry out a bedding in procedure.

 

5x stops from 50 - 30 low pressure

Drive at 70 for a couple of miles without touching the brakes to cool them

5x stops from 70 - 30 med pressure

Cooldown

5x stops from 100 - 50 as hard as you can before ABS kicks in

Cooldown

 

 

You can substitute the third one for another 70 - 30 with hard pressure if you don't fancy doing a ton. Carry out the stops one straight after the other, using full acceleration.

Is this the procedure for bedding in new brakes? its just that ive only just bought this car and it doesnt have new brakes.

Thanks Michael

I understand what you're saying but mine don't squeak when they're cold it's when they're warm.

It's very loud squeaking.

Hello all,

Just picked up my 350z and the brakes squeak on soft braking and low speeds. problem is apparent with say inner city or town driving but not on high speed braking or braking the requires me to put abit more bite onto the discs.

Ive had this problem previously with a set of brembos on DC5. i was wandering if there was a fix for this problem? As you can imagine its quite embarrassing!

Thanks Michael

It's official. Picked up a UK 350z with GT pack this morning

 

Congrats Let's see some pics then. So, what d'ya think in comparison to the TT?

I'll get some up at some point this week. i need to give it a wash and polish

The handling is day and night compared to the TT. Much better drive, was really impressed. My Zed doesnt have any mods so ill be hoping to rectify this soon. Just a quick question what is a pop charger? isit the same as an air filter or am i missing something lol. Also i hear alot about plenum spacers but im unaware what they are.

Cheers !

Don't rush into one just because it's the first car you see. There are a lot of good cars out there, but undoubtably a few not so good.

 

If you find one and would like a second opinion, post the link on here and let us all see (but if it's an absolute bargain, maybe put a securing deposit down first)

 

Good luck with your search. Hopefully the one you see tonight is a good 'un.

i had a look at one last week, on the description it promised so much but in reality it was a let down. It was completely unkept. He didnt even bother to wash or hoover the car. massive crack in the windshield, no paperwork. was a wasted journey!

 

Im abit more optimistic about the one tonight. would of preferred to of bought a UK model but due to funds its very hard to find one with reasonable miles and options.

The import im looking at has all the key parts from the GT Pack (bose, leather, heated seats etc..) is there any other real reason they seem to be frowned upon.

 

Seen alot of adverts with UK MODEL! as if the import is completely inferior

 

 

These are my own thoughts, and may not necessarily be agreed with by anyone else - but as I said, they're mine

 

I love my Zed. It's the car I wanted my TT to be. I learnt a lot about car ownership and maintenance following the purchase of my TT - for all the wrong reasons. However, it's how I discovered forums like this one. It was almost a weekly occurence entering a search into Google to find out "What does error code P##### mean" or "How do I change/fix this/that". 99% of the time it would return a result on the TTF, so I signed up.

 

After almost 18 months of ownership of my Zed (which in itself is a long time for me to own a car), the only searching I've had to do to replace anything is for a modification and not following a failure.

 

I see about 5 or 6 TT's everyday (and that's just the Mk1), whereas I hardly ever see a Zed, maybe one a month (not including meets). I like the exclusivity. I know this doesn't give a great review on the cars from a driving experience/driveability point of view, but I'm proud to own my Zed. I still have to glance back at it whenever leaving it parked anywhere. The TT is a good car (I just had a bit of a lemon I think), but the Zed is a GREAT car.

 

And this forum community aint a bad bunch either

I know what you mean, you hear horror stories everyday on TTF and i just thank god it was never my car. im glad to know that the 350z's are more reliable.

Alot of the cars i have previously owned have been JDM imports so i know what you mean about having a car that feels exclusive.

And a car mainly owned by enthuasiasts. i just hope i find the right one and soon as im in need of a car now that my TT has sold lol

Nice car, love the backdrop. I did a Quattro Sport stylee rear seat delete in mine - that's how I knew I didn't need seats in the back!

Cheers, how do you rate the two cars? i'm due to see a 350 tonight! hopefully the one i will be buying.

Hello and

 

Which TT are you coming from? I came from a Mk1 225 and have never looked back. Although the Audi may have similar power, I'm guessing it'll be the Quattro, so just remember the Zed is RWD before booting it exiting an island

I had a mk1 TT 225 running around 285bhp at stage 2. i love my jap cars tbh, i cant wait to be back in one and finally a Z car!

The understeer in the TT made it quite boring around bends even with suspension mods

Hopefully with a purchase of a 350z (import) tomorrow i will be a part of this online community

For my budget i have opted to get the slightly cheaper import model, i've done a few searches and seen the differences however the one that im going to look at tomorrow seems to be the equivalent of a GT Pack UK model.

Im really excited about the prospect of owning one. i did have a look at a uk spec one last week but it was a bad example and left me thinking is the car i really want. however this morning ive seemed to of found a gem of an import.

Im moving on from a TT running more or less exactly the same bhp, so it should be a seamless transition however im sure the power delivers will differ immensely.

I have owned mainly jap or german cars ranging from dc5's, pulsar GTIR's to mk5 Gtis' and couple of bmw's.

Im 26 from Herts and would like to say Hello!
